Clix-O-Flex camera in good condition made in 1947 by Metropolitan Industries, Chicago Illinois.
Shutter functions but not tested with film.
Fixed focus point and shoot pseudo TLR (twin lens reflex) camera made of Bakelite with a polished metal hood for the waist level viewfinder and an art deco face plate.
Takes 4×3 landscape photos on type 127 film with a Maestar 57.5mm mensicus lens and two shutter modes: “Time” (otherwise known as “Bulb”) and “Instant” (supposedly around 1/40th of a second”) however only Instant mode seems to be working.
Both lenses have small amount of fungus on the inside.
Scratch or crack on the inside of the top lens.
Small chip in the corner of the body (see photo).
Not sure on quality of mirror-seems dusty.
Interesting historical point: The half frame size the camera takes was developed during the Great Depression in America, allowing people to take more photos on a single roll of film.
